Abstract

This chapter reports on the research results, outlining two out of the five major themes that emerged from interviews, their relevance to explaining the entrepreneurial gap and related challenges, and the opportunities for young Emiratis. Using interview data and direct quotations, this chapter reports on and analyzes the two themes of personal characteristics and family. The theme of personal characteristics includes the sub-themes of need for achievement (nAch), need for independence, risk-taking propensity, and capacity to innovate. The theme of family includes the sub-themes of family circumstance, family approval, family support, and commitment to family. The sample demographic data is also provided in this chapter.
